Okay, fair enough, although I thought the content I was describing was more like 3~4 years (since I left out Treasures of Aht Urhgan and Wings of the Goddess), but still, you made the point.

I bought FFXI on release day, but sadly I cannot say I played to endgame right from release day. I bounced back and forth to the game because I had no friends committed to sticking with it. However, the content I did experience back then was still way more than what we have currently.
